Mage Knight: Destiny's Soldier is a tactical role-playing game for the Nintendo DS set in the war-torn world of the Land in the year 435 Tz. Players embark on a quest to restore balance by engaging in battles and earning respect points from various factions. Accumulated respect enables players to amass a stronger army, ultimately leading to larger conflicts to save the Land from destruction.
The year is 435 Tz, and every faction in the Land is at war, and if it continues there won't be much Land left to fight over. The strain on the world's magical energy is literally tearing the Land apart. The Land's fate lies in your hands. You must fight hard and earn the respect of all the races of the Land, and together you must fight to keep the Land alive. Travel the Land earning respect points by battling small armies that you'll find along your journey, and eventually work your way up to all out war. The more respect points you gain, the more inclined warriors will be to join your army.
